In the older days there was no such thing as divorce; you stayed together and worked things out. Although some relationships just aren’t meant to be, fifty percent is just too high. Today, divorce has developed into a common rite of passage. Each year over one million children in America fall victim to divorce, half of those children experience the divorce before eighteen. Children of divorced parents tend to have more health, behavioral, and emotional problems and will eventually have a hard time with crime and drugs. For some children, divorced parents don’t affect them. One of my younger cousins lives a perfectly normal life with divorced parents. She understands that things didn’t work out for mommy and daddy and has grown accept it. Unlike the general population of children victim to divorced parents she is a straight “A” student, has no history of behavioral problems, and is emotionally stable. Divorce affects children differently. Fortunately, I live in a happily married home. =)
